Abstract
Flammable organic material is made less flammable by incorporating a polynitrogen containing salt of polyboron oxyacid in or on the material. The polynitrogen containing salt of polyboron oxyacid is produced by reacting a boron oxyacid or salt of boron oxyadd with a nitrogen containing salt forming compound such as ammonia, amino compounds and amines in water. Both the polynitrogen radical and the boron oxyacid radical are both flame retardant agents. The polynitrogen salt of boron oxyacids may be used to form a flame retardant compositions by mixing it with carbonization auxiliaries and fillers. The polyammoniun alkali metal salts of polyboron oxyacids are useful as flame retardant agents and as a surfactant.
